Mr. Muscle forcing bursting

Stingy thingy into little me, me, me

But just ”ripple” said the cripple

As my jaw dropped to the ground

Smile smile

It’s true I always wanted love to be

Hurtful

And it’s true I always wanted love to be

Filled with pain

And bruises

Yes, so Cripple-Pig was happy

Screamed ” I just compeletely love you!

And there’s no rhyme or reason

I’m changing like the seasons

Watch! I’ll even cut off my finger

It will grow back like a Starfish!

It will grow back like a Starfish!

It will grow back like a Starfish!”

Mr. Muscle, gazing boredly

And he checking time did punch me

And I sighed and bleeded like a windfall

Happy bleedy, happy bruisy

I am very happy

So please hit me

I am very happy

So please hurt me

I am very happy

So please hit me

I am very very happy

So come on hurt me

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

I’ll grow back like a Starfish

Like a Starfish…
